Broughton THE REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT The Annual Report of the Society provides considerable insight into the activities of the Centres and your National Council. The 1982 edition is no exception. It presents a fascinating picture of the wide range of endeavours undertaken by the amateur and professional astronomers of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada. The “hands-on” work such as variable star observing, comet search, telescopic equipment design and construction and even ‘virtual’ nova discoveries confirm our members’ commitment to the world’s oldest yet newest science. As even greater indication of their desire to promote astronomy are the extensive public education programs that they have devised to introduce even more people to our “first love”. Despite the current prolonged economic slump we’ve been experiencing, our membership has held up remarkably well and in some Centres, with special efforts, we’ve seen increases occur. We are still receiving inquiries about forming new Centres. It is a healthy sign. During 1982, on behalf of the Society and in conjunction with the National Museum of Science and Technology and the National Research Council, our immediate Past-President, Dr. Ian Halliday, and our Second Vice-President, Mary Grey, undertook to publish a series of useful and bilingual News Bulletins on Hailey’s Comet, due for a perihelion visit in 1985-86. This year saw the General Assembly go to the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon and the host’s organizing committee provided excellent weather, excellent facilities, and a good program for all the delegates including a tour of tum-of-the century Saskatchewan at the Western Development Museum. The paper session was well handled by the Physics Department’s Dr. Ray Skinner. At the Assembly Banquet the Simon Newcomb Award was presented to Phil Mozel from Toronto and our new National Librarian, for his excellent paper on “The Woodstock College Observatory”. For outstanding service to their respective centres and to the Society as a whole the Service Medal was presented to Dr. Douglas Hube of Edmonton and Gordon Patterson of Saskatoon. Many awards were given to individuals and Centres for the first-class work done in the observing disciplines. On the lighter and more social side of the Assembly delegates were treated to an entertaining array of slides and movies depicting everything under the sun and the traditional “high standard” in pyramid building and creative artistry in the song contest was maintained in Saskatoon. The efforts and success of Saskatoon Centre members in the 1982 General Assembly proved beyond doubt that quality of mem­ bership means more than quantity of membership. Thank you again. In the spring the Canada-wide Science Fair was held in Toronto and three astronomically-related entries won recognition for their student creators from our Society and memberships in their local Centres. They were Keith Hitchon of Calgary, Jeffrey Hatt of Toronto and Michael Buckthought of Ottawa. During the year a donation of $30,000 from a Society member was gratefully received and an ad hoc committee’s recommendation that it be used to assist Council Members defray their travel expenses to Council meetings was accepted. Our publications continue to be popular under the editorships of Dr. Roy Bishop for the Observer’s Handbook, Dr. Alan Batten for the Jo u r n a l and Dr. Ralph Chou for the National Newsletter. The Observer’s Handbook is in considerable demand around the English-speaking world and the requests for duplication rights have made it necessary to have our new solicitor, Blake F. Kinahan, draw up a licensing agreement to handle such requests. Our Society is indeed fortunate to have from amongst its members many very talented individuals who gladly serve the Society. Our out-going President Dr. Ian Halliday, former Recorder Harlan Creighton, and long time librarian Frederic Troyer are excellent examples. We must thank them for the excellent jobs they performed. If the past is any guide we will undoubtedly be benefiting from their good advice years from now. Thank you for the past and the future of the Society. The big challenge for the coming year facing our Society and our Centres in particular will be to build a future based upon our successful past efforts and tempered by today’s economic realities. We must find even better ways in which our Society can serve its members. I am confident that we will meet this challenge, as we have others in the past, and continue building an organization which is the envy of many around the world. FRANKLIN C. LOEHDE, President REPORT OF THE NATIONAL SECRETARY 1982 saw the patriation of Canada’s new constitution, and so it seems appropriate to reflect on our Society’s constitution and how well we are living up to the objects it sets forth. The reports from the Centres contained in this Annual Report give us strong evidence that we can be proud of our endeavours. We are stimulating interest and promoting and increasing knowledge of astronomy through excellent lecture programs, public star nights, campground talks, scout and guide training; we are maintaining and acquiring more and more impressive observatories, telescopes, and other equipment all the time; we do publish an amazing array of Centre publications in addition to our national publications; we do make grants to Centres and make awards to individuals to further their study and advancement of astronomy. Let us proclaim these worthwhile accomplishments and let us applaud those active members who have given much to sustain these goals. We should also acknowledge those who have helped the Society financially - the very generous donor of the $30,000 which, we hope, will give members from across the country easier access to participation in Society meetings and will allow them to assume a more active role in the National organization, the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council grant, and the grant from the Province of Ontario. Finally, as anyone dealing with the National Office knows, we owe many thanks to our executive sectretary, Rosemary Freeman, who really keeps the gears of the Society oiled and turning in spite of the wrenches some of us may throw in from time to time. The following list of membership figures, as of September, which she has compiled, is an indication of her careful and extensive record-keeping. 1981 1982 Calgary 81 92 Edmonton 113 105 Halifax 89 82 Hamilton 77 64 Kitchener-W aterloo 41 37 Kingston 38 37 London 57 41 Montreal 75 91 La Societe d ’Ast. de Mtl 114 59 Niagara 53 46 Ottawa 237 176 Quebec 113 87 St. John’s 9 13 Saskatoon 59 50 Sarnia 25 25 Toronto 702 739 Vancouver 128 108 Victoria 93 121 Windsor 41 41 Winnipeg 62 66 Unattached to Centres: Canada 396 390 United States 324 340 Overseas 38 54 Honorary 15 15 ---- ---- 2980 2879 PETER BROUGHTON, National Secretary The highlight of the year for the Calgary Centre was the construction of its new observatory and assembly building on the ground of Strathcona-Tweedsmuir School, 14 km south of Calgary. The observatory will be opened officially on January 29, 1983 on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the founding of the Calgary Centre. It is to be named the Wilson Coulee Observatory. The first sod was turned on August 11, 1982 and construction was completed by the end of October. The Centre was especially pleased to win awards at the General Assembly in Saskatoon, the first for the best Centre display and the second, the Overall Grand Prize. The former award included a $100.00 cash gift and the latter, a small Richfield telescope.

  • Eric Church Doesn't Back Down on Holdin' My Own
    ERIC CHURCH DOESN’T BACK DOWN ON HOLDIN’ MY OWN TOUR Standing behind his vow to put face-value tickets in fans’ hands, Church cancels secondary market ticket orders and releases them back to the public - Tuesday, Feb 21 at NOON. Tickets available while supplies last for Eric’s show at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles on March 31 at www.AXS.com. Nashville, Tenn. – After witnessing the three-hour, two-set marathon show at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center merely weeks ago, Rolling Stone professed, “Eric Church sets the bar.” The exchange in energy with the audience and passion that fuels the man behind the CMA’s Album of the Year is an earned one after years of putting his fans first. Whether it is the dozens in attendance at his first performance in Bethel, New York or the 15,842 in attendance for last month’s breezy night in Brooklyn, it is that unrivaled dedication to surpassing their expectations that is driving another mission: ensuring fans’ hard-earned money is spent fairly on face-value tickets at each and every stop on his 60-plus city Holdin’ My Own Tour. Throughout the Holdin’ My Own Tour, Eric and his team have systematically identified, cancelled and released tickets back to the public that were identified as scalper tickets. Already on the tour, Eric’s management team used a proprietary program to release thousands of tickets back to the public and fans in markets like Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Toronto, Vancouver and Boston. On Feb. 21 at noon local time, the team will release to the official ticketing website all tickets identified as scalper-purchased for the remaining markets back to the public.

Introduction This Issues and Opportunities Brief summarizes the technical analyses completed as part of Phase 2 of Edmonton’s Exhibition Lands Transformation (formerly named the Coliseum Station Area Redevelopment Plan). It incorporates the findings from the following project tasks: › Transportation technical analysis › Civil infrastructure technical analysis › Site visits and analysis › Context analysis › Public and stakeholder engagement The summary and discussion provided on the following pages should be supplemented by the more detailed findings of these technical studies, where available, and by the Phase 1 What We Heard Report that describes the results of public engagement to date. The Exhibition Lands project will study the lands centred on the former exhibition grounds located between the Coliseum and Stadium LRT Stations, including the Coliseum arena and EXPO Convention Centre, and the edges of surrounding communities. The study area boundaries (shown on the following pages) have been designed to encompass neighbourhoods with the highest potential for change in the future, and to enable the project to consider transitions and connections between the City lands and existing residential areas, nearby open spaces and the broader transportation network. Note that the project is in a stage of transition, with a focus on creating a more collaborative and transformational vision for the future of the Exhibition Lands.
